There are sofas in every home. Some use them as additional seating when guests gather, others buy sofas so that they have something to relax and sleep on. Therefore, in addition to appearance, it is necessary to determine in advance their type of design, dimensions, and materials of manufacture.
Among the huge selection of sofas, the most popular and widespread are folding models - books. They are distinguished by functionality, aesthetics, ease of use and high technical characteristics.
Types and features of book sofas
The peculiarity of a book sofa is that when unfolded, its backrest leans back, and the seat, moving slightly forward, falls back onto the frame, while the process itself resembles turning over the pages of a book. This is how it got its name. To unfold it, you need to make a minimum of effort and spend a few seconds of free time.
Photo: What a sofa book looks like (folded and unfolded) The main advantages of these models should be added:
- strength and reliability. This furniture has stood the test of time;
- long service life of the transformation mechanism;
- practicality. Models are upholstered in various textiles: leather, jacquard, chenille;
- ergonomics. When folded, they take up little free space;
- wide range of models;
- affordable price.
As for the varieties, book sofas are equipped with: armrests, linen drawers, different types mattresses and fillers.
With or without armrests
Products with armrests are classified as classic version, without them - to the modern. Products without armrests (without sidewalls) look more compact and are suitable for small rooms. Their advantages include:
- ergonomics and compactness of the furniture item;
- stylish and original appearance;
- the ability to install soft ottomans or a coffee table on the sides of the sofa;
- lower cost of the product.
When choosing a sofa without armrests, it is worth considering that if the furniture is used as sleeping place, then the pillows will slide off while you sleep.
But, if there are small children in the family, it is better to choose furniture with soft armrests, as they are safer.
Armrests, in turn, can be wooden or soft. Wooden handrails have:
- wear resistance and durability;
- naturalness and environmental friendliness;
- availability extra space for laptop, tablet or any other items;
- ease of use.
Soft armrests are easier to care for. But they are pleasant to the touch, you can lean on them while watching a movie or having a friendly conversation.
With linen box (storage system) and without box
Most models of book sofas are equipped with additional linen drawers. They significantly increase the use process, since they have space for pillows, blankets, bedding sets and other things.
Some models are equipped with one spacious drawer, others with several. Also, laundry drawers, depending on the chosen furniture model, differ in size and depth.
Linen drawers in book sofas can only be accessed in the disassembled position of the furniture item. Although there are models that always have access to them.
With independent spring block, with Bonnell spring block, springless
All book sofas are complemented with different types of filling. They may be like spring block, i.e. with a spring mechanism and with a springless one:
- Bonnell blocks are classic and use dependent springs of large diameters. Such products are distinguished by a medium degree of rigidity and a low orthopedic effect;
- mattresses with independent springs promote complete relaxation of the muscles and spine. These products are practical, comfortable and durable;
- springless mattresses. They come with PPU (polyurethane foam), or are filled with latex, coconut fiber, etc. They have a high degree of rigidity and belong to the economy class. Springless mattresses are not very durable, and when choosing, preference is given to models that use solid material.
You can often find products with combined fillers on sale. Such sofas can also be used spring mattress both polyurethane foam and coconut fiber at the same time. The composition can be very different. Therefore, before buying, you should sit on the sofa or several models you like in order to assess the degree of comfort and only then make a choice.
Narrow, wide
Which sofa to choose: large or compact is up to the buyer to decide. Here preference is given to more convenient and practical models. Also, when choosing a narrow or wide sofa The area of the room where it is installed is taken into account. For small rooms it’s worth limiting yourself to more compact ones narrow models, and large and wide products look beautiful in spacious living rooms or bedrooms.
Fabric, leather, with combined finishing
The upholstery is selected depending on the stylistic direction of the room and the personal preferences of the buyers. The main thing is that the product is easy to use and maintain. The following upholstery materials are considered the most popular:
- jacquard. Refers to semi-natural fabrics with high technical characteristics. It is quite dense, wear-resistant and resistant to negative factors. This fabric is available in a wide variety of colors, textures and patterns;
- velours. It has a soft and delicate surface. Its composition is dominated by natural and synthetic fibers that are resistant to deformation and fading under direct sunlight. Velor is easy to clean, retains its bright colors for a long time, and does not lose its original qualities;
- flock Imitates velvet or suede. It is soft, wear-resistant and easy to care for. This perfect option if there are pets living in the house;
- chenille Hypoallergenic and abrasion-resistant material with a fleecy structure. Does not absorb odors, easy to clean.
- eco leather. New generation material that looks like genuine leather. It is characterized by moisture resistance, elasticity, and resistance to mechanical damage.
On a metal frame and wooden
Metal products are more wear-resistant and can withstand heavy loads. Although most consumers prefer wooden frames made from pine, beech, plywood, and chipboard. Products made from chipboard and pine – a budget option. It is unlikely to please consumers with a long service life. In the middle price category there are models whose frame is made of plywood or beech
Its service life directly depends on the strength of the sofa frame.
Photo: Operating principle of the sofa-book transformation mechanism The book sofa is equipped with a unique transformation mechanism that provides a flat sleeping area. There are two types of layout:
- The classic version (see photo above) is extremely equipped simple mechanism. It has only two moving parts - a back and a seat. To unfold the furniture, you need to lift the seat up and lower the back onto the frame. The seat rises until a click is heard. Then it goes down, forming a sleeping place;
- Roll-out book. The sofa is convenient because it does not need to be moved away from the wall. It is enough to slightly push the mechanism forward and unfold it according to a similar principle as described above.
Photo: Roll-out sofa book A classic sofa book should not be placed close to the wall, since when unfolding it you will have to move it away each time.
What is the difference between a sofa book and a Eurobook?
The main difference between a simple sofa-book and a Eurobook is in the transformation mechanisms, i.e. folding methods.
Additionally, it is worth noting that Euro models (unlike the “book”) have a more level and comfortable sleeping area, and the body itself is devoid of complex node connections, there is practically nothing to break. Therefore, the answer, which is better, is obvious.
Standard sizes of a sofa book
All book sofas differ in size, which directly depends on the number of seats. They come in two, three and four seater types. The seats in them can be of any size, since there are no specific standards here.
When choosing a sofa, its width, depth and height are taken into account. An important parameter is the size of the sleeping area, as well as the seat height.
Table: dimensions book sofas (average min-max data) Bed size

How much does a sofa book weigh on average?
The weight of a book sofa can be very different. Its weight is influenced by various factors: type of construction, dimensions, frame materials.
A classic book with spacious drawers for three seats will weigh up to 90 kg. The lightest in weight are models with pine frames and foam mattresses on a chipboard backing. Their weight can be less than 70 kg.

The cost of a book sofa depends on the type of its design, materials of manufacture, brand, transformation mechanism, dimensions. The most simple models economy class with polyurethane foam filling, on wooden frame and velor upholstery cost from 5,000 rubles, which is quite inexpensive. The price for upholstered furniture from a well-known manufacturer with filling from independent spring blocks and higher quality upholstery will be around 15,000 rubles and more.
In conclusion, it is worth noting that book sofas are universal furniture pieces. They are suitable both as an extra bed and as just sitting places. This furniture goes on sale in a huge assortment. Manufacturers produce them in various types of designs, dimensions, materials of covers and fillers.
Many models are equipped with additional accessories (footrest, linen drawers, armrests, tables). Each buyer decides which option to choose for himself, based on his needs, the characteristics of the room, the purpose of the furniture and his financial situation.
Hello, Stepan!
When purchasing, you need to obtain information about permissible load on the mechanism. These data are indicated in the model description, otherwise check with the seller. Ask which one Weight Limit withstands the sofa you like. In addition, it matters whether the furniture will be used daily or is a guest option. Important Features when choosing a durable sofa, it means a strong frame, stable, non-wobbly legs and a reliable transformation mechanism.
Choosing a mechanism for transforming upholstered furniture
- Roll-out mechanism considered one of the most reliable and durable. It is designed for numerous transformations and is suitable for everyday use. It is easy to unfold and put away. There is a special belt loop hidden under the seat; by pulling it, you will force the front part to move forward and the back to take its place. Models equipped with this mechanism usually have a spacious and flat sleeping surface. When folded, they take up little space. This sofa can be installed close to the wall.
- "Tick-tock" is an improved and modernized "Eurobook". The sofa mechanism extends the seat and reclines the backrest. An improvement on the previous mechanism consists of mechanically lifting the seat above the floor as a result of transforming the sofa.
- “Click-clack” - sofas with this transformation mechanism are distinguished by the absence of cracks and depressions in the sleeping area. In addition, they are more comfortable due to the possibility of choosing positions: “lying”, “half-sitting” or “sitting”.
- It might be worth considering the option corner sofa- the mechanism of such furniture is little involved, and since this part is one of the most vulnerable, a static sofa is more durable.
Spring blocks and heavy weight
For a person with a lot of weight, it also matters right choice spring blocks. In this case, “Bonnel” is recommended - in these blocks the radius of support of the spring coil is consistently reduced. As a result, the spring is easily compressed at the beginning of the load, and becomes tighter as the load increases. If you weigh more than 110 kg, you should carefully consider this option. Consider the disadvantage of this type of springs - they are interconnected. As a result, when you press on one spring, you also affect the others. Therefore, this type of spring blocks does not adapt well to the shape of the human body. Independent block free from these shortcomings. But it is not suitable if the load on the furniture is above 110 kg.
How soft should your sofa be?
For a sleeping place you need to choose a harder surface. High density polyurethane foam makes the surface of the sleeping place more elastic, which means it can withstand more weight. Compared to the spring design, PPU provides a more rigid surface.
As for durability, both options are encouraging. High-quality polyurethane foam is designed for a long service life. Spring units are also quite durable if they are relatively expensive. Flooring nice sofa must last at least 5 years. Its durability is affected by the quality of materials and operating conditions.
And finally, pay attention to the fittings - a reliable sofa should have metal fasteners, plugs, supports, springs and buttons. Avoid plastic parts.
Best regards, Galina.
The matter of relocation was touched upon. A small, cozy sofa, which the owner easily moved from place to place, was carried out by two brave guys in loader uniforms. The transportation was completed successfully, it’s time to pay for the work. And then it turns out that the fragile girl, without much effort, was dragging furniture weighing 150 kg. Incredibly, please pay the workers according to the “oversized heavyweight” tariff.
How much does a sofa weigh on average?
To avoid similar situations An approximate estimate of the weight of your favorite furniture will help. Universal formula there is no calculation, but by looking closely at the sofa you can get your bearings with an accuracy of up to a couple of kilograms. It is enough to pay attention to the following parameters:
- dimensions;
- frame material;
- upholstery;
- mattress design.
Based on the listed features, it is already possible to make a rough estimate.
Book
A classic sofa of this design is distinguished by the spaciousness of its drawers, high quality assembly and decent weight, which ranges from 75-110 kg.
A larger number is typical for three-seater furniture upholstered in heavy material, the frame of which is made of solid wood. Modern mattresses are relatively light, but if we are talking about the old “spring”, then the lion’s share total mass falls specifically on her.
The book can weigh less due to the use of lighter materials. Frame made of pine or chipboard, minimal structural reinforcement and foam mattress on a fiberboard substrate they are not particularly durable, but the weight of such products can even fall below the level of 75 kg.
Angular
The corner sofa has a more complex frame and, therefore, a decent weight of 100-160 kg.
As with a book, the higher quality the materials, the heavier the furniture. The heaviest structures are those with a built-in transformation mechanism. The easiest options are kitchen ones, unable to be transformed, made from cheap materials.
Ottoman
A small, cozy sofa without unnecessary problems. The ottoman weighs about 40-50 kg. And if the movers try to convince you that this is not true, just turn the sofa on its side and show its design. Well, 4 legs, 4 load-bearing bars and several reinforcing bars cannot pull any more. Even in combination with fiberboard sheets, upholstery and foam rubber.
How is the weight of a sofa determined, by what parameters
The heaviest part of any upholstered furniture is the frame. The most common materials for its manufacture:
- Steel structures are not weightless, but are recognized as the most reliable. If such a sofa turns out to be light, then it is made of aluminum. It's easy to verify this.
The massif varies in weight depending on the type of wood. Long-lasting oak and beech are the heaviest. Birch is not much lighter. Pine weighs the least. - In terms of weight, chipboard and fiberboard occupy a middle position between pine and metal.
In addition to the frame material, it is necessary to pay attention to the design features. The more complex the design of the sofa transformation mechanism, the more weight the furniture pleases the owners.
